Marvel Big Bang - Art Masterpost

[amberdreams]

Yup, I'm still in the Marvel camp at the moment! This art was done for Technorat's fascinating what-if AU, One More Sunset, written for the 2019 marvel_bang.

I only managed the one painting, but for a change, I was quite pleased with how it turned out.


I wanted to try something a bit different with the angle, in part to reflect the fact this is an AU story, so things will feel a bit off kilter. So I tilted the view point and raised it a bit - not as much as I first intended. My reference for Loki's position was created using an iPad app called ArtPoseMe. I haven't quite got the hang of it yet LOL.

Anyway, here's some in progress stuff for those of you who like to see how I get from A to B.
Using a watercolour block, I first drew Loki and the background in pencil

Then went in with the watercolours, background first.

I was using screenshots from the wrecked Asgardian ship at the start of End Game mainly for the colour scheme but the wreckage in the drawing is really just made up.
These are a couple of the poses I was referring to for Loki
&
As you can see, I didn't end up copying either...
And yes, I know Loki doesn't look a great deal like Tom Hiddleston but heh. Hopefully he's still recognisable as Loki.

I totally got Tom Hiddleston! The colors and wash you got are fantastic.
